John Hull Quotes:

  • John Hull: Gerry, I sold drugs, I've watched people die, and I didn't do nothing. I killed people. You lied to me.

    Carver: They lied to me, John. How naive can you get, man? What, what, are you so stupid you can't see that? You think I like this? Huh? John, I'm sorry. Huh? It's all shit, you know. It's all bullshit. You know that. I know that.

    John Hull: What the fuck am I gonna do now?

    Carver: Hey, you know they're bringing me to Washington? Come along with me, man. We'll go to Washington. We'll have a budget, huh? We'll have some clout, we'll have some...

    John Hull: I didn't get into this for that.

    Carver: Well, neither did I. But that's all there is. They're the fucking spoils of war. You might as well enjoy it.

    John Hull: Well, if that's all there is, I've been wasting my motherfucking time with you. I can get more clout and more money on the street than I can get following your ass to Washington. Know what? This whole fucking time, I'm a cop pretending to be a drug dealer. I ain't nothing but a drug dealer pretending to be a cop. I ain't gonna pretend no more, Gerry. I quit.

  • David Jason: How come I like balling black chicks so much?

    John Hull: I don't know. Maybe you feel like you're fucking a slave.

  • John Hull: The jungle creed says the strongest feed / on any prey that it can / And I was branded beast at every feast / before I ever became a man.

  • John Hull: We took eleven million in drug profits out of the van. The money doesn't know where it comes from, but I do. If I keep it, I'm a criminal. If I give it to the government, I'm a fool. If I try and do some good with it, maybe it just makes things worse. Either way, I'll probably just wind up getting myself in more trouble. It's an impossible choice, but in a way, we all have to make it. What would you do?

  • David Jason: What's the most intense sex thing you ever did? You ever, uh, been with two women at the same time?

    John Hull: Yeah, your mother and your father.

  • Betty McCutcheon: I don't trust him.

    John Hull: You know something? I don't think you could trust yourself.

  • John Hull: Gerry, what's the difference between a black man and a nigger?

    Carver: What?

    [John Hull punches Gerald Carver in the stomach]

    John Hull: The nigger's the one that would even think about telling you.

  • [John Hull presents Gerald Carver with drugs he has obtained]

    Carver: I can't buy that much shit, John. I don't have that in the budget.

    John Hull: Well, what am I supposed to do with it?

    Carver: You're a drug dealer. Deal drugs.

  • John Hull: How much is this?

    Betty McCutcheon: Do you know anything about ethnic art? Have you ever been in a store like this? See, we don't put price tags on our merchandise. So if you have to ask, then obviously you can't afford it.

    John Hull: In that case I'll take two of them.

  • John Hull: You ever kill anybody?

    Carver: Are you kidding? I went to Princeton to avoid all that shit.

  • John Hull: [Narrating] Taft's partner Heranandez was a dirty cop, He needed a bust to look clean, so Barbosa decided to...

    Hernandez: You going to make me wait? I'm telling Taft that I got people working, I need some busts or they're going to start wondering about me.

    Gopher: They're already wondering.

    Felix Barbossa: Relax man, I told you to come here. You can have Gopher if you want.

    Felix Barbossa: How about a lawyer?

    Gopher: Felix, what?

    Hernandez: Lawyers are great, Jewish even better, but I need some Spades. Politicians like dark faces so they can scare the suburbs into voting Republican.

    Felix Barbossa: Lawyers and spades? I got the trifecta, two dealers and a girl who does the wash, two niggers and a kike, all Democrats.

    Hernandez: You're my man.

  • Betty McCutcheon: Business is improving.

    John Hull: From almost nothing to almost something.

  • John Hull: David, come on. Take your feet off the couch. You don't do that at your mother's house, do you?

    David Jason: Nouveau anal, I think this is called.

    John Hull: I think you made your point.
